Parameter estimation of ordinary differential equations

This paper addresses the development of a new algorithm for parameter estimation of ordinary differential equations. Here, we show that (1) the simultaneous approach combined with orthogonal cyclic reduction can be used to reduce the estimation problem to an optimization problem subject to a fixed number of equality constraints without the need for structural information to devise a stable embe...

Parameter Estimation in Stochastic Differential Equations

Financial processes as processes in nature, are subject to stochastic fluctuations. Stochastic differential equations turn out to be an advantageous representation of such noisy, real-world problems, and together with their identification, they play an important role in the sectors of finance, but also in physics and biotechnology. These equations, however, are often hard to represent and to re...

Parameter estimation in nonlinear stochastic dierential equations

We discuss the problem of parameter estimation in nonlinear stochastic di€erential equations (SDEs) based on sampled time series. A central message from the theory of integrating SDEs is that there exist in general two time scales, i.e. that of integrating these equations and that of sampling. We argue that therefore, maximum likelihood estimation is computationally extremely expensive. We disc...
